Entry Top Tips
Bought to you by the leading packaging publication in the UK, Packaging News has launched the Women in Packaging Excellence Awards to recognise and applaud the accomplishments and positive contributions women and male allies have made within the packaging industry.
Choose from a selection of 30 categories, and submit your entry today!
Please note: A nomination does not constitute an entry. Now that the nomination phase has closed, all nominees are invited to submit a full entry in the category or categories for which they were nominated. Entries are also open to the wider industry — you do not need to have been nominated to take part. You may enter yourself, enter a colleague or industry peer, or do both.
Contact our Delegate Sales Executive, Natalie Packham on +44 (0)20 3953 2347 or email natalie.packham@emap.com if you have any further queries.
